Wakeboarder Dominik Hernler explores Mozart's hometown from a fresh view.

From the mountains to the "The Sound of Music" filming locations, everyone has their own individual perspective of the Austrian city.

In "Sound of Wake," Dominik Hernler explores Salzburg from his own standpoint - with a wakeboard strapped to his feet.

From the Salzach River to the Great Festival House, the Austrian athlete navigates the local waters on his way to meet chief conductor Elisabeth Fuchs.

The track used in the video comes from the Red Bull Symphonic project featuring drum n' bass stars Camo & Krooked and classic composer Christian Kolonovits.

"The underlying idea of 'Sound of Wake' was to combine storytelling with wakeboarding, classical music, and the many history-steeped locations Salzburg has to offer," says Hernler.

"It was an enormous challenge for me and the whole team, but it was totally worth it. The movie is simply brilliant."

Besides getting the tricks and timing right, one of the main challenges was to find places to wakeboard that others would not even dream of.

"What makes this particular project so special is that I selected locations that seem totally unsuitable for wakeboarding," concludes the 28-year-old.

"And then we went for it. It was pretty cool, but see for yourselves!"
